Chapter 1364: The Clever Clerk
The so-called great aristocracy also has a distinction between dignity and inferiority.
For example, the lord of the city of Balan, and the great nobles who ruled the lot of the jewelry store.
Both are great nobles, but the latter has to look at the former's face.
This is the difference in status and identity.
The Japanese Wind Championship and the Top Ten Championship are in full swing.
Now, it's no longer a win-or-lose game, it's a round-robin match.
In other words, each of the ten teams has to compete with each other, and the results of the competition are determined by the number of wins and losses.
The more victories, the greater the chances of occurrence.
Currently, the top three are, the Dwarf Guild, the Rose Legion of Moonlight City, and the Iron Wolf Guild.
Among them, the Dwarven Guild temporarily has a winning record, the Rose Legion of Moonlight City has only lost two, and the Iron Wolf Guild has also lost two.
After that, there are the Rose Legion of Dasai City, the Golden Flame Guild and the Silver Wing Guild, and so on.
Among them, the Golden Flame Guild and the Silver Wing Guild had the same number of defeats, only one less than the guild that followed them.
Various versions of rumors continue to circulate among the neighborhoods and teahouses, mostly saying that the seats of the five major guilds of the Zephyr Continent are about to change, and the Golden Flame Guild and the Silver Wing Guild may be replaced by latecomers.
Or maybe the back waves of the river push the front waves, and the Golden Flame Guild and the Silver Wing Guild are estimated to be finished.
This kind of negative talk could not be stopped, and soon, it overwhelmed the 'obscure reason for the alliance between the New Heroic Guild and the Boulder Guild', and the momentum was higher and higher.
It is no wonder that everyone loves news, but no one mentions old news, which is an indisputable fact.
Although he was squeezed off the first hot list, this beam was still settled.
I'm not a gentleman, I don't have the idea of forgiving and forgiving, whoever takes revenge on me, I must retaliate back, even if the other party promises that I won't do it again, I still have to do it.
What's more, the smear in the past few days has doubled the pressure on the New Heroic Guild and the Boulder Guild, and the members of the two guilds are unable to live normally, no matter where they go, there will be people pointing fingers and making irresponsible remarks.
Like gossip, this is one of the most basic human emotions, not to mention those peddlers and pawns.
What I hate is the gossip spreaders.
If you have the ability to confront me head-on, I will fight immediately, even in the face of an Achilles-level opponent, I will not back down.
The front is tough and defeated, but my skills are not as good as others.
Acting behind my back, it makes me unhappy, and I can't help but hate you.
I have always had only one way to deal with those I hate, to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and I will never be soft.
Still not going to see the game, I went to the basement of the New Valorant Guild early, and the location map of the lending organization had been ascertained, but there was only one place.
"There should be more than one place," I said to Boss Wren, "what do you think?" ”
"The three holes of the cunning rabbit," he replied,
It seems that Boss Rennes agrees with me.
It seems that there is still a need for further contact with the emissary.
As the saying goes, put a long line and catch big fish.
In order to find out the exact location, I decided to put it on hold for now.
Before noon, the messenger came again, and when he saw me, he puffed up his chest, bent his stomach, and called me brother and brother in all kinds of ways, and I was disgusted when he heard it.
I took him to the finance office, showed him the accounts, and took out 20% of the profit in person and handed it to him.
"I'm sorry, big brother, I'm new to my brother, and that's all I can earn, forgive me."
I pretended to be humble.
"Where!" The envoy rolled his eyes, with a righteous and awe-inspiring expression, and said: "Everyone is their own person, less is less, big brother, I will help you carry it!" ”
"Thank you, big brother," I am grateful.
"You're welcome!"
After that, he smacked his mouth, patted his stomach, and said, "This, it's noon in the blink of an eye, brother, have you eaten, do you want your eldest brother to treat you to a meal?" ”
"Don't, I can't afford this" I hurriedly said: "How can I let the eldest brother invite me, I invite the eldest brother, who is it, you help buy some good wine and meat, it doesn't matter if it is expensive, if you can get up to the grade, I will invite the eldest brother to dinner!" ”
Squeezed her eyes at a clerk girl, she understood and ran out.
In a short time, the wine and food were complete, and a table was full, and the envoy looked at it with a smile.
I have to say that this clerk girl is very knowledgeable and understands my mind of 'just counting, ignoring measuring'.
In fact, this table of wine and food is really not expensive, and the price of a piece of jewelry in the store is not even as high, but the quantity is really large, the dish size is really big, and the wine jug is also frighteningly large, and it is full of wine, and you can know that it contains at least half a pot of water.
The wine mixed with water is not good, but the emphasis is on the pomp and circumstance, the momentum of the family, just to see, the messenger is satisfied, plus a bunch of money in hand, the mood is naturally happy, and the poor wine can also drink a good taste.
After the wine and meat were finished, it was already afternoon, and the staggered messenger was sent out of the door, I went back to the store, turned out the personal information of the errand clerk girl, and roughly read it, and determined that it had no background, no education, and only stayed in the adventurer college for a few years, because the family was poor, so I dropped out of school and came to work in the jewelry store, and I worked for ten years.
However, when I look at her age, she is less than twenty years old, and she must have been less than ten years old when she was hired.
I was slightly surprised, but then it became clear that after all, this is a Zephyr continent, and child labor is not illegal.
So, I called her into the office for questioning.
"Your name?" I asked.
"Anna," she replied, slightly apprehensive.
"Anna, today's matter" I paused, looked at her panicked expression, and those big eyes that were both expectant and nervous, and suddenly smiled, "You did a good job." ”
She breathed a sigh of relief, and nervously regained her feet.
"Don't be nervous," I said, "I just wanted to have a chat with you, and I didn't mean anything else." ”
"Yes, manager."
"I've read your resume, you came from a poor background, you only studied at the Adventurer Academy for a few years, and then you dropped out of school to work, right?"
"Yes, yes," she said.
"I ask you, what did the former store manager do to you?"
Anna looked at me cautiously and opened her mouth, but didn't answer a word.
"Don't be afraid," I said, "I'm just doing a consultation to find out how the former store manager treated each employee and how you think of him." ”
Seeing that she was still nervous, she couldn't do it.
I sighed lightly, shook my head, and said, "Since you're so nervous and afraid of him, don't say it." ”
"Former store manager...... He's bad. ”
A small voice like a mosquito came from Anna's mouth.
"Huh?" I raised my head and said, "Why is it not good, tell me about it." ”
"He's very stingy and dirty-minded, and always wants to take advantage of our sisters," Anna said, carefully observing my expression, and seeing that my expression was indifferent, she continued: "Almost all the sisters in the store dislike him, but no one dares to say it, for fear of being deducted. ”
"Then why don't you choose to get out of here?" I wondered.
"I want to leave, but I don't dare," she whispered, "The former store manager has a relationship with some terrible people, whoever runs away, if he is caught, he will definitely be killed!" ”
